This thread is somehow making me think back to the year of the twins. Those two had very strong supporters and very strong opponents, too (they were great, btw, lol).

I can honestly say that I have enjoyed the discussion today. Did I like what everyone said? No way. Did I agree with what everyone said? Not even close. But all in all, it's been an interesting and entertaining day on the board.

SFJF, first off this is a tough one to put into words without it coming out all wrong, but I suppose maybe they aren't doing more because he hasn't done anything illegal (yet???)... I think with- what was his name...was it Scott? I think they could claim damage to their property or something along those lines. If it comes down to legal/not legal in that sort of regard, then removing him before he does more is kinda like arresting someone because you suspect they might do something. It's unfortunate, but i think that's maybe part of it. Another part of me thinks CBS is drooling at the drama and care more about how many more dollars they can squeeze out of having these two going at it every week. And they will keep letting it ago until there is a HG revolt of some sort, or something "bigger' happens that they can't ignore. Cha-Ching. Personally, I don't think their fighting is even fun to watch.

Justin wasn't even going to hurt Krista is what really sets that one apart. It was a bizarre drunk thing, but if I remember correctly, they were having a good time. Not my kind of good time, but I guess if taht's what you're into....

"When there is a actually fist thrown and there is physical damage, sanfran. That is crossing the line. I don't care if it is Jenn who throws the punch (and don't tell me girls can't hit guys, Layla Ali). Anyone who throws a punch, lands it, does any damage, deserves to be removed." Interesting....you would wait until Dick actually punches Jen in the face before stepping in to put a stop to his abuse, huh? Thank you for your answer. Now I understand. EM - "At this point SF I would have to say it isn't for us to draw the line, it's for BB to draw it." But I'm not asking if it is actually your responsibility to make decisions for BB. I'm asking you at what point would you agree that BB should eject him from the house? What would Dick have to do for you to agree that Dick should be ejected? We both know that you would not wait until Jen was lying beaten to a bloody pulp on the kitchen floor and we know that you do not draw the line at Dick escalating his verbal abuse to the physical level like when he poured tea on her.....so where between those two things would YOU draw the line and agree that ejecting Dick from the house is the right thing to do?

from Dick's hoh diary on CBS: Jen..... Do I have to write anything here???? Haven't I said enough about her already? Well, yes...and no. This is a wait and see thing here. And don't be surprised to see us working together (or at least not against each other) in the future. But yes, she is still a self-centered, self-absorbed, immature twit. don't be surprised to see them working together in the future????? hmmmmmm

Dick wrote that when he was HOH, weeks AFTER the remark Jen made about him touching her in that first competition? Obviously, that month-old remark Jen made has absolutely nothing to do with the hatred Dick shows for her now.

I don't know- do you really think he would go that far? I probably would, if really, really, really angry, do something like the tea thing. I doubt it, but in there I might (in real life I'd probably go for a walk and take myself out of the situation). I would not, however, ever actually lay a hand on someone and hurt them. She had tea poured on her- it's rude, it's insulting, and it's totally disrespectful- but it didn't hurt her. I've been angry at people enough to want to just smack them, but I have never done it. I don't know if I ever dumped a drink on someone, but I wouldn't be as adverse to doing that as I would be to hurting them. Just sayin' I do think there's a big line between pouring a drink and actually forcefully laying a hand on someone or something. Would he cross that line? I actually don't think he would to be honest. But like I said, I haven't watched him on the feeds at all, and I'm actually a week behind in watching the episodes because I've been out of town so I really don't know.

Dick seamed proud of the fact that he was told that he "did not cross any lines". What would happen if Jen were to toss tea on Dick (...or better yet Danielle) just before the live show on Thursday?

Sanfran, when would you like the line to be drawn?? Any verbal abuse should be an automatic dismissal?? Touching each other at all should be automatic dismassal? The problem is, is the more you say things should be done, the more people won't tune in to watch, the more people are going to find this boring. You could go so far as to say, no touching at all of each other. There would go a lot of games with swimsuits and stuff because people couldn't touch each other. You would have to get rid of the pool because people would have to touch each other. Yeah physical abuse, throwing a punch and landing it, is where I drawn the line. If the line was drawn any lower, it would not be TV.

I think Jen should pour something on Dick and then we could let that go, and if I were her I would start telling him that the only reason people aren't telling him what they think of him is because of how he is treating her and that they are scared of the mean guy. Part of me wants to get in that house and tell Dick a thing or two for Jen, but then she would probably not want me to do that.

No, I don't want Jen to pour anything on Dick. Two wrongs do not make a right. I hope she is more mature than that, and won't sink to that level.

I don't find verbal abuse entertaining. I find good gameplay entertaining.

I'd love to see if Dick reacts the same as Jen to getting something spilled on him, but I don't think it's right or a good idea for Jen.

Dene, I think she should be allowed to pour something on him. Maybe tomatoe juice?
